I hope this message finds you well.

I’m writing to follow up on a request I sent to join your Slack group on February 4th. I haven’t received a response yet and wanted to kindly bring it to your attention, as I’m eager to get involved with your community.

I’m a Master’s student in Statistics with a Data Science concentration at California State University, East Bay. I’m very interested in contributing to Kolibri Studio as part of Google Summer of Code 2025. Your mission of advancing inclusive education across all social strata and supporting a life of dignity for all strongly resonates with me.

I believe my technical background and enthusiasm align well with your projects. Here’s a quick overview of my skillset:

**Programming Languages:** JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Java  
**Frontend Development:** Vue.js, React, Next.js, UI/UX Design  
**Backend Development:** Node.js, Django, Spring Framework  
**Databases:** PostgreSQL, MongoDB  
**DevOps & Deployment:** Docker, CI/CD, AWS, Cloudflare (Serverless)  
**Version Control:** Git, GitHub

I’m excited about the opportunity to collaborate with the Kolibri team, contribute meaningfully, and grow through the process. You can find more about my work on [my GitHub](https://github.com/nishred), and I’m available via email at nlankala@horizon.csueastbay.edu.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Warm regards,
